Re: Nautilus Scripts Not working

The title doesn't say that much. Errors when you try? Script contents?
Did they ever work? Do they work on other systems? Do they work as
other users? Do they run when executed from the command line? What
language are they written in? Which version of (presumably) opensuse
are you using and on which architecture? Are the scripts in a 'noexec'
partition? Are they marked executable? Do they have the proper shebang
line at the top (e.g. #!/bin/bash)?

Re: Nautilus Scripts Not working

My scripts are from gscripts: 'Nautilus File Manager Scripts: Welcome to
G-Scripts' (http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/)and gnome-look.org. And
yes they all have worked on other platforms.
I am attempting to use them on OpenSuse 11.1 Gnome version. All of the
scripts are executable.
There are no errors that I have been able to find. After entering my
password the box disappears and thats it.

Looks like they just may have outdated instructions. Maybe try
extracting them to ~/.gnome2 instead of ~/.gnome to see if that helps.

Good luck.

Re: Nautilus Scripts Not working

They are in .gnome2. Many are from 'Eyecandy for your GNOME-Desktop -
GNOME-Look.org' (http://www.gnome-look.org/)and since I keep an eye out
for new and updated ones I would think they would be outdated would
they?

Re: Nautilus Scripts Not working

I'm not very adept at this, but I was just wondering if there would be a
better chance of these working if they were converted to python as
opposed to bash. Maybe one of you who does a little scripting would
know.

I would suspect you would have, at best, an equal chance since Linux is
typically good about just running scripts that are setup properly. Run
one of these from the command line to ensure it works. If it does then
try Alt+F2 and see if you can get something there that way (you
mentioned something about a password, but no details about how you
managed to get there). Please be specific in all that you do. So far
these scripts, when in my directory properly, seem to run just fine.

Good luck.
